Rennes plot move to bring Nayef Aguerd back from Marseille
Stade Rennais are interested in bringing Olympique de Marseille defender Nayef Aguerd (30) back to the club, according to a report from Foot Mercato.
The Morocco international spent two seasons at Rennes between 2020 and 2022, making 66 appearances before joining West Ham United . He returned to Ligue 1 last summer when Marseille signed him following a loan spell at Real Sociedad .

However, Aguerd's future at the Vélodrome is already uncertain as OM attempt to raise funds and comply with financial restrictions imposed by the DNCG.
The 30-year-old reportedly has a clause in his Marseille contract allowing him to leave for €15m, payable in a single instalment, before the end of Friday, 31 July. Once that deadline has passed, OM will be free to demand a higher fee for the centre-back, whose contract runs until 2030.
Rennes are understood to be particularly interested in re-signing Aguerd, although Foot Mercatoadds that the deal remains complicated at this stage. GFFN | George Boxall
